Her first album over at Tapecar paired Elza with pianist Ed Lincoln, who had kind of a rockin', soul-swinging past. That side of Lincoln's career isn't so much in evidence here -- Elza keeps on the path she'd started out, shifting away from gafieria and jazz-tinged sambas towards a rootsier sound -- they've even got her seated in a wicker chair and wearing one of the same sort of Afro-Bahian frocks that Clara Nunes favored at the time. The arrangements are still a bit on the overly-perky side, but she was clearly intent on giving Nunes a run for her money, and does an admirable job. Some of the slower songs are clunky -- she has a pretty hefty voice that works better when wrapped around a rhythm than trying to phrase a hushed melody, though on the other hand, she's not getting all slushy and popped-out the way Clara did when she slowed down the pace, so in some ways this sounds better. Anyway, this is really nice stuff... Worth checking out! --- slipcue.com
